Wellsy’s World turns 1

A year ago today, the site you’re reading now, Wellsy’s World, came into existence. I had no idea how any of this was going to turn out when I wrote that weak little introductory post last November – I just wanted to comment with a degree of discernment on some issues and see if anybody cared. In the intervening year:

The site has received close to 64,000 hits according to WordPress, and SiteMeter says it’s gotten over 29,000 visits and nearly 36,000 page views since August

I’ve written 425 posts and used 1,164 tags

Wellsy’s World has been ranked 220 or better in Wikio’s Politics sites

For a non-professional site with a staff of one, I couldn’t have asked for a better first year for the blog. And, of course, it couldn’t be possible without all of you. I appreciate all of you stumbling in or continuing to drop by. Hopefully, the site’s second year will be even better than the first. I know I’ll do my best to make it happen.
